ward8124 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 (edited) Hi all, The problem I'm trying to address is that I don't like having to grab the QFE rotary with the mouse and drag it all the way to the top of the screen in order to turn the dial quick enough to make a large adjustment and even then you need to do this maybe three of four times to get the desired setting. I've created a front panel for my pit which has a two rotary switches I want to assign to the Altitude adjuster rotary in the Viggen. The set up is a 16 detent (clicks)rotary encoder wired to a Leobodnar BBi-32 and I've set the pulse to 8ms. I've mapped the rotary switch in DCS and done some testing and it now my rotary switch is increasing/decreasing the value of the QFE. HOWEVER! A full revolution of the physical rotary is barely turning the dial in DCS and so now I'd need to rotate my rotary many many many many times to get anywhere near the value of QFE i'd want in DCS. I've testing the Rotary in A10C and one indent = 1 increment in the QFE setting so that is what I'd expect in the Viggen. I've changed the pulse length in the LeoBodnar config but this hasn't had any impact. So this leads me to ask a few questions. In the REAL Viggen when you turn the altitude adjuster a full revolution, what is the ratio to the value of Altitude e.g. 1rev = 10 QFE increments etc Second question is how do I emulate this in DCS so that my poor rotarys don't get spun for ever trying to change a QFE by 20!

Ice_Cougar Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Try holding down LSHIFT while using mouse wheel. It makes the knob scroll rather quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mule Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 I'm using rotary encoders mate sp this won't work :( Just on the off chance, you might read this. Did you get it working I have rotary switches I want to assign to certain functions such as the master mode switch? Fighter Pilot Podcast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duckling Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Check if bodnar support acceleration function for the encoders. To set a threshhold if number of detents per time exceeded, then output to sim can be increased by factor. I.e faster spinning the encoder, the number of 'ticks' to the SIM increases - - - - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
